Conor Neill on LinkedIn: "What is the Job of the CEO? 30 minute interview with Waldemar Schmidt, ex-CEO of a 250,000 employee global business. This is a short summary. The full interview is here over on my YouTube channel. #busines ¿Estudio lo que me gusta o lo que pueda darme un trabajo? Nuccio Ordine. Bueno, yo pienso que es un papel fundamental, importantísimo. Yo creo que el futuro de una sociedad se mide con el nivel educativo de esta sociedad. Pero, por desgracia, ¿qué sucede?

Harvard researchers say this is how successful people make small talk “How are you?” These are the three most useless words in the world of communication. The person asking doesn’t really want to know, and the person responding doesn’t tell the truth. What follows is a lost opportunity and meaningless exchange with zero connection. But the key to making the most out of small talk, according to Harvard researchers, is to simply ask the other person follow-up questions. In a series of experiments, researchers analyzed more than 300 online conversations and found that those who were asked more meaningful follow-up questions (a.k.a. questions that aren’t “how are you?” “When people are instructed to ask more questions, they are perceived as higher in responsiveness, an interpersonal construct that captures listening, understanding, validation and care,” the researchers wrote. So how do you move from tongue-tied to being a charismatic and interesting person? Here are seven tactics to having a meaningful conversation: 1. Some of those questions might be: 2. 3. 4.

No puedes convencer a un terraplanista y eso debería preocuparte | Ciencia Hay gente que cree que la Tierra no es una esfera achatada por los polos, sino un disco. Que la Tierra es plana. No es analfabetismo: estudiaron el Sistema Solar y sus planetas en el colegio, pero en los últimos años han decidido que todo eso de "la bola" es una gigantesca manipulación.

We love the idea of wabi sabi as a metaphor for the work we do. You’ll see little things that are imperfect—the size of images next to each other, for example, or the hand drawn elements.
